Name

Kota Iskandar was named after the late Sultan of Johor, Almarhum Sultan Iskandar.

History

On 24 February 2004, the Johor State Government approved to build a new state administrative centre in Nusajaya, and the seat of government will also migrate to Nusajaya with allocation of 129.5 ha (320 arces) of waterfront site in the 9,700 ha (24,000 arces) Nusajaya site. Originally, the first choice to build the new administrative centre is in Johor Lama, and will named it as "Johor Perdana". But due to 1997 Asian Economic Crisis, the initial concept plan was cancelled and the state government suffered a setback and many companies collapsed at that time. In 2000, Renong (UEM Land) approached to the state government to allocate a site for free in Nusajata to build the new administrative centre and develop the place jointly with state government. UEM Land also offered to buy the government 20% stake in Prolink Development Sdn Bhd (currently known as Bandar Nusajaya Development Sdn Bhd) that formed to develop Nusajaya, the share purchase would provide the government with the funds to build the place.[1]

Kota Iskandar was officially launched by Sultan Iskandar on 19 April 2009. Within the same month, 2,200 civil servants moved to the new complex and the first sitting for Johor legislative assembly happened on 19 June 2009. In February 2010, public transportation was introduced to the area.[2]

Architecture

The administrative centre consists of the State Assembly Building, Chief Minister's and State Secretariat's Office (Dato' Jaafar Muhammad Building). The buildings are based on a Johor-Malay and Moorish architecture. The Chief Minister's and State Secretary Office houses the chief minister's office, state EXCO offices, Secretary of State office and many other departments. It has 21,480 square feet (1,996 m2) of office space in a five-storey structure.[3]
